*In the dare room*
Spark: Not again...
Crystal: Ooh, is it a repeat of the last dare?
Spark: Thank Arceus it's not that, but do you remember a certain dare where you were able to torture basically all of us?
Crystal: Yes I do, you mean the one where everyone had to listen to me?
Spark: Exactly, except this time it's Black who we have to listen to
Trike: This should end well :D
Pike: Black couldn't do too much harm though, right?
Spark: You have no idea *teleports Black into the Dare room*
Black: What am I doing here?
Spark: You remember, a few dares (I think) ago when I said your luck had turned around?
Black: Yeah?
Spark: Congratulations, everyone has to listen to you for a day
Black: ...
Pike: Uh, you okay?
Black: @Crystal_Furry_17?
Spark: Exactly
Black: First things first-
Spark: *gulp*
Black: A battle with Speed!
Spark: Phew...
Black: After you jump in the lake for revenge!
Spark: What!? That was literally over ten dares ago!
Black: You heard me
Spark: No
Horizon (A male shiny Sylveon if I need to remind you): Alright then Spark, if you wish to refuse this request you must answer this question: If you go trick or treating on Christmas in July and it's Valentine's Day tomorrow, how birthday present do you give your girlfriend?
:
Spark: I'm single
Trike: Obviously
Horizon: Wrong answer *Slaps Spark in the face*
Spark: Ow, fine, flowers?
Horizon: Wrong answer *Slaps Spark in the face twice*
Spark: Chocolate?
Horizon: Wrong again *slaps Spark in the face four times*
Spark: Does it DOUBLE every time I get a wrong answer?
Horizon: Exactly, would you like to continue?
Spark: Nope *hops out the window into the lake*
Pike: That looks fun *follows Spark into the lake*
Black: Finally I have revenge!
*In the lake*
Pike: This is fun, come and join us!
Black: *from the window* No thanks, I've seen more than enough of that lake
Spark: *to Pike* How is this fun?
Pike: *was playing underwater and didn't hear what Spark said* *pops head out of the water* What did you say?
Spark: I said "How is this fun?"
Pike: How is it not fun?
Spark: *raises paw to reply but then puts it down without a response* Uh...
Pike: Exactly
Spark: Fine... *Continues to swim around in the lake*
*Back up in the dare room*
Black: Let's continue with my day *Heads downstairs and encounters Pearl in the hallway* *In mind* Do I tell her to leave me alone for the day, or do I ask something else? I think I'll just tell her to leave me alone, even though she hasn't been as bad lately, I still feel like I need to show my view on this *to Pearl* Pearl
Pearl: Yes?
Black: According to the latest dare, everyone has to listen to me, and I want you to leave me alone for the entire day
Pearl: *slightly angered* Fine, I'll leave you to do whatever you want today, and how about for a while, because it's obvious you still don't trust me *starts to walk away*
Black: Pearl wait...
Pearl: Goodbye Black *walks away*
Black: Well that went horribly, time to continue
*In the garden*
Black: Hey Speed!
Speed: Yeah?
Black: I want a battle!
Speed: Why?
Black: Because everyone has to listen to me today
Speed: Well okay, let's find a battlefield
Spark: *Gets out of the lake a few yards away* No need *Teleports them to a battlefield nearby*
Speed: Well let's do this, you first
Black: You'll regret that *fires a dark pulse at Speed which he counters with Thunderbolt, filling the battlefield with smoke*
Speed: Will I? *lands an Iron Tail from above*
Black: Ugh *slides back before firing off Shadow Ball*
Speed: *Is falling down from his previous attack and is hit by the Shadow Ball* Oof
Speed: Alright you landed a hit, but can you take this? *His ruff turns green and he uses Pin Missile, sending a barrage of pins toward Black*
Black: It won't matter if they don't hit me *Dodges all the pins before landing a Dark Pulse to Speed's back*
Speed: Argh, but you maybe got a little too close *His ruff turns green again and he launches his Pin Missile launching his pins backward surprising Black and sending him flying back*
Black: *Gets up* Wasn't expecting that
Speed: Not going to force me to lose are you?
Black: Of course not! This is a battle, an honorable fight, I'm not going to use the dare to cheat *Fires off a Shadow Ball*
Speed: Good *dodges the Shadow Ball and proceeds to fire a Thunderbolt back*
Black: *is hit by the Thunderbolt* You're stronger than I thought, but not stronger than me *Launches another Dark Pulse towards Speed*
Speed: *gets hit by the Dark Pulse* Argh *in mind* He's strong, but I it's time I got really serious about this *sends off a volley of electrified Pin Missiles*
Black: Woah! *attempts to dodge the pins but gets hit by several of them* That stings
Speed: Want to continue?
Black: Yes, continue to victory! *Uses Dark Pulse repeatedly*
Speed: *Fires back with Thunderbolt to create more smoke before using Iron Tail repeatedly on Black*
Black: Alright, do that if you want, but it won't end well *The smoke has cleared enough for Black to see Speed's next attack which he allows to land and then uses Payback, sending Speed flying*
Speed: Clever, but you've still taken more damage than I have
Black: That may be the case, but I'm about to end this *uses Psychic to grab some rocks and send them hurling toward toward Speed*
Speed: *eyes widen as the rocks come toward him, then hit him*
Black: Did I win? Wait, are you okay Speed?
Speed: *Burst from the rocks, covered in scratches and cuts*
Black: Uh Speed, are you sure you don't want to stop?
Speed: No... *Launches forward and uses Quick Attack*
Black: Oof *in mind* Is he invincible, how is he still standing after those rocks hit him? *Fires a Shadow Ball*
Speed: *takes the hit* I'm not going to fall to anything like that *fires off another volley of electrified pins*
Black: *has been hit too many times to dodge and takes every one of the pins* No,,, *Faints*
Speed: I win, sorry Black
Spark: *teleports them back to the garden and sees that Black is fainted* I'll go get Pearl,,, hopefully she'll help
Speed: Hopefully?
Spark: Black said something stupid, again
Speed: Gotcha
Spark: *goes and finds Pearl* *knocks on her door* Pearl?
Pearl: Come in
Spark: *opens the door* Pearl, Black needs your help, he lost his battle with Speed, oh and uh, Speed is looking a little worse for ware as well
Pearl: *sigh* I'm coming
*the two of them go downstairs*
Pearl: So they beat themselves up again *uses Morning Sun to heal Black and Speed*
Speed and Black: Thanks Pearl
Pearl: You're welcome Speed *leaves*
Speed: What on earth did you say to her?
Black: It's none of your business
Speed: Okay?
Black: Now to continue on *heads to his room for a little*
*By Black's door*
Crystal: He he he... * Has placed a bucket of water attached to string on the shelf next to the door, with the string connected to the doorknob so that when Black opens the door it will fall on him*
Black: *Opens the door and gets splashed by water* Ugh, Crystal, no pranks, and you have to clean up this mess
Crystal: Nooooooooooooooooooo!
Horizon: *teleports in and slaps Crystal* Do you wish to not do this?
Crystal: I know what will happen otherwise so no
Horizon: Good *teleports away*
Black: Alright see you later Crystal *leaves*
Crystal: Thankfully I have an idea *Uses Water Absorb ability to absorb the water* Easy
*Black is in the garden heading for Leaf*
Black: Hey Leaf?
Leaf: Yes?
Black: Could I have some berries?
Leaf: Sure *picks a basket of Oran berries and gives it to Black* Here you go
Black: Thanks Leaf *Walks away*
Trike: *Flies down* You were awfully soft on her
Black: So?
Trike: I'm thinking you have a crush
Black: No way!
Trike: Then how come you were so soft on her?
Black: She's never done anything to me
Trike: Except reject you
Black: Rejected me while I was doing a dare
Trike: She still rejected you
Black: That's enough, go fly 5 laps around the treehouse
Trike: No
Horizon: *teleports in and slaps Trike in the face* You really wanna try that?
Trike: Maybe I do
Horizon: Then answer this-
Trike: Without answering one of your questions *flies into the air*
Horizon: You're not getting out of this that easily *uses one of his ribbons to try and grab Trike out of the air*
Trike: Missed me! Ha ha ha, take that mother fluffers you can't catch me *Trike is dodging the ribbons as they swing around after them*
Black: Allow me to help *uses Psychic to grab Trike and move them close to one of the ribbons*
Horizon: Thanks *Uses the ribbon closest to Trike to grab them* Now, do you still want to resist the dare?
Trike: No
Horizon: Then go fly around the treehouse five times *throws Trike into the air with his ribbon*
Trike: *From the air* Muking idiot! *flies around the treehouse*
Horizon: You continue on, I've got to keep an eye on that one *points at Trike who is flying around from behind the treehouse
Black: Alright *Walks off* This day has been interesting *thinks* Was what I said to Pearl really mean? *Shakes his head* Nah
*In the kitchen, Flare and Pearl are cooking lunch*
Pearl: Oh look the king is here, do we need to bow?
Black: *shocked by her aggression* No? Why would I ask that?
Pearl: I don't know, it's impossible to tell what's going on inside your head, one day you're helping me organize books, a few days later you force me to leave you alone
Black: Bu-
Pearl: Oh do we need to change what we're cooking for lunch? Do you not want curry?
Black: Of course you don't need to change what you're cooking for lunch! I'm not trying to use the dare to cause trouble!
Flare: *Has been standing there awkwardly for the entire argument* Guys?
Pearl and Black: What!?
Flare: I-I'm just gonna leave
Pearl: You don't need to leave, I will, I don't think his highness wants me anywhere near him *walks off angrily*
Flare: What on earth did you do to her?
Black: I don't know, I just told her to leave me alone
Flare: I think she thought you'd forgiven her for all the incidents when you first moved into the treehouse
Black: Of course I forgave her for that! I've told her that before
Flare: Well I think when you showed distrust in her today that kind of nullified the apology
Black: *facepaw* Girls are so complicated
Lazuli: *walked in and heard the conversation* She's angry at you for what you said, sad because she thinks you don't trust her, and jealous of how you wanted Silvia over her
Black: No one could feel all of that at once, they'd explode!
Lazuli: Not all of us have the emotional range of a teaspoon
Trike: *flies in through the window and lands on the table* Get roasted!
Black: That wasn't a roast, it was a reference
Lazuli: You're both wrong, it was a reference and a roast
Black and Trike: ...
Lazuli: Exactly *leaves*
Flare: Oof, you guys got beat
Black: I'm well aware of what just happened
Trike: Uh, bye *flies out the window*
Black: Hey Flare I'm curious
Flare: *still kinda miffed about Pearl leaving* Hi curious I'm Flare
Black: That was bad
Flare: I know
Black: Anyway, what I'm curious about is, how many ghost peppers can you eat without needing to stop?
Flare: I'm a fire type, I can handle most things
Spark: *sticks his head in the door* Let's test that theory *teleports in a large bowl of ghost peppers and places it on the counter* My eyes! *leaves*
Black: Wait why was he complaining about his eyes?
Flare: *picks up a ghost pepper* Because, you usually use gloves and goggles to handle these things
Black: *runs out and gets some chemical testing goggles* Like this
Flare: Yeah, but regular swimming goggles would have worked *tosses the ghost pepper whole into his mouth*
Black: Wait, how did you do that?
Flare: Well naturally since I'm a fire type I can handle this kind of stuff safely
Black: Oh, then I'm guessing that you could down that entire bowl of them?
Flare: Of course I could *downs the entire bowl in 3 minutes*
Black: Wow...
Flare: Yeah, I can easily handle this kind of thing
Black: Still to a non-fire type, that's very impressive
Flare: I guess, now if you'll excuse me, I've got some curry to finish, alone thanks to you
Black: It's not my fault!
Flare: Yes it is
Black: Whatever *heads into the living room, where he finds Lazuli*
Lazuli: What do you want?
Black: Could you freeze Trike? Well you kind of have to because of today, but will you do it without resisting?
Lazuli: *smiles* Gladly
Trike: *was sitting outside on the windowsill* Oop, gotta go *Flies off*
Black: There they go!
Lazuli: Let's get 'em *they head outside and begin chasing Trike*
Black: There they go
Lazuli: *In between ice beams* Wow. They're. Hard. To. Hit.
Black: Grrr, Trike, get down here!
Trike: In the words of Crystal, never!
Spark: *Comes dashing out of the treehouse at Jolteon speed with a machine on his back* I'm ready to help!
Black: What's that thing on your back?
Spark: One of Trace's inventions, it simulates Electro-Web
Lazuli: *In between ice beams* Well. What. Are. You. Waiting. For. Use. It.
Spark: Alright, alright *Fires the machine which launches a simulated Electro-Web into the air and it just grazes Trike's wing*
Trike: Ayo, watch it fluffers! *but while Trike was focused on talking-*
Lazuli: Got you! *Fires one last ice beam which hits Trike directly*
Trike: No! *The ice completely freezes them and they fall to the ground, a solid block of ice*
Black: Ha ha ha, take that you f***ing nuisance
Spark: That was kind of harsh
Black: Do you even know this bird-brain?
Spark: *sigh* Yes I know them
Black: Then you'll know why I said that
Spark: Yes I do, so what are you doing next?
Crystal: Why have you run out of ideas for what to write Spark?
Spark: CRYSTAL! *chases her off toward the lake*
Black: Wait Spark
Spark: *nervous* What?
Black: I have something I want you to do
Spark: *really nervous* What is it?
Black: I want you and Crystal to spend an entire hour locked in a room together
Spark: NO!
Horizon: *slaps him in the face* Are you sure that's your answer?
Spark: *sigh* give me the question
Horizon: If there are 24 hours in a day and the flavor of the sky is watermelon, how many mons were born tomorrow?
Spark: What?
Horizon: You heard me
Spark: 26?
Horizon: No *slaps him twice*
Spark: 34?
Horizon: *slaps him four times* No
*A few answers later*
Horizon: *slaps him 128 times* How long are you going to do this for?
Spark: I'm done... I'll sit in a room with Crystal for an hour...
*In the dare room Crystal and Spark are sitting on opposite ends of the room*
Crystal: So-
Spark: No! *Has used discharge to create an electric shield around himself*
Crystal: What exactly are you doing?
Spark: You're chaos, I can't predict anything you're going to do, so I'm staying inside my shield!
Crystal: I may be crazy but I'm not that crazy, and besides you can't keep discharging electricity for an entire hour, you'll run out
Spark: *grunts with the effort of keeping the shield up* I'm not going to let it down *teleports himself an elixir and uses it* I can keep this up
*Thirty minutes later*
Spark: Okay this is getting ridiculous *lets down his shield*
Crystal: And now...
*Thirty minutes later*
Spark: AAAHHH! *He runs out of the room* I have to get out of here! *He runs to his room and locks the door*
Crystal: *Walks out of the room calmly* That was fun
Speed: *walks up to her* What did you to Spark? I just saw him running toward his room with a look of terror on his fae
Crystal: So you automatically assume me?
Speed: Black told me what he told Spark to do, I assumed that Spark would probably come out looking something like that
Crystal: Fine, I just annoyed him for the thirty minutes after he dropped his shield
Speed: Wow, thirty minutes of you annoying him, now I understand why he was running away so quickly
*Back to what Black was doing at the time of Spark's torture*
*By Pearl's door*
Black: *knocks on Pearl's door* Pearl?
Pearl: *From behind her door* What do you want? Do you have some torture planned for me too?
Black: *sigh* No, I've come to apologize for what I said earlier...
Pearl: *shock* What?
Black: I said I've come to apologize for what I said earlier, I'm sorry for telling you to leave me alone, I never meant to hurt you by saying that.
Pearl: *opens the door* Black, did someone ask you to apologize to me?
Black: No, well sort of, Lazuli came into the kitchen after you left and told me how you probably felt, and I, well I don't really know how I felt about it, so I came to apologize
Pearl: *sigh* Come in, we'll continue our conversation in my room
Black: *In mind* Do I trust her enough to be behind a closed door with her *shakes his head* I've made her feel bad enough by not trusting her once, I'm not about to repeat that *to Pearl* Alright
*They go inside Pearl's room and Pearl closes the door*
Pearl: Black, I hope you understand what you said meant, it made it so that apology you gave me a few weeks ago, well it didn't really mean anything anymore, you didn't trust me, even though I haven't done anything to you in a long time
Black: I should have trusted you, I know, and you have no idea how uncomfortable I am right now, apologizing like this isn't something I normally do
Pearl: Fine Black I forgive you for what you said, just give me some time to think okay?
Black: *exhale* Well I don't really want to do this, but I suppose I'll have to if I want you to forgive me *hugs Pearl and then leaves, embarrassed*
Pearl: Did he just...
*with Black, who is in the hallway*
Black: I can't believe I just did that
Crystal: *Appears from behind him* *sly* did what Black?
Black: *angry* You can't just sneak up on people!
Crystal: I can and I will
Black: It's none of your business, where's Spark though?
Crystal: Thanks to you he's locked up in his room, thanks to me, and partially you
Black: What do you- Oooooooooooh
Crystal: Yup
Black: Well thanks, I guess *heads to Spark's door* Hey Spark? I'm done
Spark: Great, damage has already been done though
Black: Alright, I'm off to the roof
Spark: Good for you
*Black head to the roof*
*Spark is sitting in his room, thinking*
Spark: Pike?
Pike: *teleports in* Yes?
Spark: Could you do the wrap up?
Pike: Sure, I guess
*Pike teleports to the dare room*
Pike: Well I guess Spark can't do the wrap up for some reason, but it doesn't matter, I'll do the wrap up. I thought this dare was very fun, I don't see why Spark was so worried. It looks like this dare is around 3,300 words. Finally, I remember Spark saying that after this dare he was opening up truth and dare requests again. With all that out of the way, C'ya! Wait where's Crystal?
Crystal: I only interrupt Spark, you are not Spark
Pike: Oh, well, okay
